    I'm almost 100% sure the Trump government will taco, or not enforce the rule so that it doesn't matter.

    IMO this is all just great marketing. The government needs to keep the hype for AI going as long it can cause so much of the economy and stocks depend on it now. Unless they have c…

    This is one of the best marketing stunts I've ever seen for any product. That Anthropic IPO will print like crazy.

    I'll never understand using AI/bot for customer support. IG is a well know platform. If I have an issue I feel pressed to connect with a support agent about it very likely is somet…

    yeah this story smells funny. Also, given the popularity of the post, wouldn't their son immediately know it's them? If I truly wanted advice, I would hide the sordid details. I th…

    Yeah strategy is weird. PyTorch and llama 1-3 were strong successes. Llama 4 was a dud but that happens sometimes. Google fumbles a few times before Gemini too. What I don’t get is…

    My 2017 macbook is basically brick. Crazy how just opening chrome sets off fans like a jet engine. How much cpu can checking gmail really use? Foolish me is considering buying a ne…

    Always negotiate no matter what. If you get an offer, it means the company WANTS you for something. Experience, skillset etc use that as leverage. Yeah, the market is tough but the…

    I work on social apps. The central issue with dating apps is incentives. The incentives to form long-term relationships go directly against profit. The incentives for the individua…

    But generally, work has gotten way less physically demanding so it balances out. Tech allows you to work in via Zoom in the comfort of your home. I hope to be coding literally till…

    I'm going to get downvoted for this, but it makes sense. People live much longer than in the past. Advancements in fitness and the decline in birthrates only make it fair for us to…

    I''m curious. Do you think it makes sense to treat an American company - one of the biggest btw, that pays taxes and creates jobs - the same way as a foreign company?
